racerxspeedy Posted April 12, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I spent a good portion of my day talking to my brother regarding his travel disaster today (re: 4-11 Getaway sailing). His group of 4 had their flight cancelled. They ended up flying out of their way to New York and then on to Miami. Only some of their luggage made it to MIA, they gave up looking at 3:15 pm. The ship was scheduled to leave at 4PM!! I figured this trip was over before it had started Boarding should of been closed at 3:15 - they arrived at 3:40, but the crew stayed open late and let them board! Thanks so much for the extra effort and not ruining the vacation of 4 Norwegian newbies. You may have just converted this family of Royal loyalists!

MYJR2000 Posted April 12, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Sounds like a very rough start to the trip! I'm glad your brother made the ship, hopefully from here on out it will be wonderful for him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicocala Posted April 12, 2015 #3 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I'm glad they made it! Please encourage them to share their cruise with us when they get back. It sounds like they are in the beginnings of a great story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missymo Posted April 12, 2015 #4 Share Posted April 12, 2015 That's one of the main reasons most people will fly to their destination port at least one day early to avoid any problems. Glad to hear your brother and family made it on the ship. Hope their cruise will be everything they dreamed of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazelSmrf Posted April 12, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I would seriously have been a nervous wreck, I'd have been in tears. I always fly the day before because my poor nerves couldn't handle it otherwise! I'm always terrified of lost luggage too, at least this time I have a direct flight so they have no excuse :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I checked in 3 hours pre flight. Just another reason for coming in a day early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisebie Posted April 12, 2015 #7 Share Posted April 12, 2015 That is so great to hear. I hope they have a wonderful cruise to make up all the stress of getting there. Do you know whether they booked their air through NCL or booked it on their own? Sent from my SM-T330NU using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
